I thought most "garbage patches" in the ocean were actually made up mostly of microplastics. I can't find a great source for this now, but a quick Google gave https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resou

It only shows that in the console for me. The rendered error page just says 'www.w3.org refused to connect.'

[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep ( https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep ) was inspired by it and is very usable. [3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance

What build system did you use? I thought the JSON compilation database is relatively well supported to generate these days (e.g. used by the language server in VS Code).

Is there still an "enterprise" niche that doesn't use GitHub's cloud version? (Or GitLab, etc.) My understanding is that GitHub's on premises version doesn't have any plans to include the new code search functi

What does Starfish do? Their website makes vague references to "decentralized organizations", "focus on payments and banking". I cannot tell if this means it's all cryptocurrencies or what their work actually accomp

Can you point to any documentation for the inflammation claim? A quick search didn't come up with much besides a study explicitly concluding the contrary: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs&#x2F

I'm not sure I agree with this. It's "different" in that you don't need to learn the intricacies of some new data loading and state management library (we've seen _so many_ of these over the years!). But the co

As you get more senior, it takes time to understand your sibling teams, the business itself, etc. If it takes 6+ months just to get "up to speed", are you really having much impact when you leave 6 months later?

The way it builds your software is also a declarative build system: MSBuild. It happens to be configured in XML instead of a Python-like language, and the IDE integration is probably better than what you get from Buck or similar. Building

There's quite a few well-known places listed on https://bazel.build/community/users across many industries. I think Buck and Pants and Please (and ...) are not as widely used, but if they had a list to add we&#x27

Unfortunately the Sorbet compiler doesn't seem to have much activity past early 2022.

"all the resources of Microsoft" doesn't really say anything about the size of the team involved here. Frankly, it sounds like a pretty small one: clearly GitHub is a successful business with many customers and a significant

Sourcegraph's underlying code search server is the Zoekt project (which started as a Google open sourced project that Sourcegraph recently took over). They mention in a blog post linked to this one ( https://github.blog/

Brand new accounts throwing accusations like this are not exactly helping the conversation, are they? Are you a regular here? Why not use your usual account, if so?

I don't understand. What specifically is "the existence of those DEI programs" preventing you from saying or doing at work?

That discards a _lot_ of culture along with it, no? Learning languages is fun, and the people you can meet (which you wouldn't otherwise) and things you learn about your own native languages is worth it to me.

Why does there need to be a company affiliation at all? Do you feel this JEP is motivated by a company's interests?

Do you browse new? None of these have had more than a couple points since https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9294622 in 2015. It seems very reasonable that most visitors simply never saw any of those submissions.

I find I occasionally look at "huge" text files in my day job, but they're almost never source files -- so I don't need syntax highlighting, jump to definition, etc. Is this something you do often in your C++ developme

Do note that this project isn't open source: for something like an editor, this is a bit of a negative for me since it significantly reduces how it can be customized if need be.

What prevents a more general solution like using @flagfiles instead of literally specifying them as arguments?

The Bazel documentation does tend to repeat them in multiple sections, though. It also doesn't include many "undocumented"/experimental flags, which are hidden in release notes or only mentioned in the source code.

Mosh doesn't work with SSH bastions (kind of obviously, but admittedly a bummer indeed), which Uber's blog post shows they use (as do many other similarly-sized companies).
